Hello,
I just wanted to share my success with a yum upgrade to FC2. The
machine was a standard FC1 install running a webserver, with two ide
disks using raid1. I did the whole thing over ssh, as I don't have a
monitor connected at the moment.

The whole thing was a matter of:

  yum remove redhat-config-* 
  yum -c yum-fc2.conf update
  yum install system-config-*
  reboot

yum probably would have handled the config packages too, if it new
about the renaming.

Next try will be my firewall and audioserver, which both have more
complex setups including wlan cards and custom rpms. 

Converting my workstation will have to wait until firewire works in
FC2 and freshrpms for FC2 is ready.

Good work guys and thanks,
Christof
